Unusual Network Activity

IP Multicast Traffic Floods Out All Ports; IGMP Does Not Appear To

Filter Traffic. The IGMP feature does not operate if the switch or VLAN does not have an IP address configured manually or obtained through DHCP/Bootp. To verify whether an IP address is configured for the switch or VLAN, do either of the following:

Try Using the Web Browser Interface: If you can access the web browser interface, then an IP address is configured.

Try To Telnet to the Switch Console: If you can Telnet to the switch, then an IP address is configured.

Using the Switch Console Interface: From the Main Menu, check the Management Address Information screen by clicking on

LACP-Related Problems

 

Unable to enable LACP on a port with the interface < port-number> lacp

 

command. In this case, the switch displays the following message:

 

Operation is not allowed for a trunked port.

 

You cannot enable LACP on a port while it is configured as static Trunk port.

 

To enable LACP on static-trunked port, first use the

 

no trunk < port-number> command to disable the static trunk assignment, then

 

execute interface < port-number> lacp.

 

 

C a u t i o n

Removing a port from a trunk without first disabling the port can create a

 

traffic loop that can slow down or halt your network. Before removing a port

 

from a trunk, ProCurve recommends that you either disable the port or

 

disconnect it from the LAN.

 

 

 

Port-Based Access Control (802.1X)-Related Problems

 

 

Note

To list the 802.1X port-access Event Log messages stored on the switch, use

 

show log 802.
